Lifetime

Our micro-motors are lightning fast, and can handle long distances: 80km cumulative stroke can easily be achieved to drive compact optical autofocus components.

 

Sub-micron precision

Combined with a position sensor, Miniswys UCM can achieve sub-micron precision in closed loop.

 

No magnetic field

Its piezoelectric nature makes it a candidate for magnetically insensitive applications, as it does not require magnets or coils.

 

Large force

Driving forces range between 50mN up to several Newtons.

 

No power consumption at standstill

Turn off the power but keep the holding force: it’s as simple as that!

 
 

Low voltage drive

Miniswys micro-motors can be driven with voltage as low as 3 volts.

 
 
 

Unlimited stroke

We have developed a wide variety of motors, each of them capable of unique performance: unlimited stroke is one of them.

 
 
 
 

Batch reliability

Generous tolerance requirements ensure cost effectiveness and performance stability making certain our motorsare compliant for mass production.

 
 
 
 

Cost-effective

Miniswys actuators are driven by commodity monolayer piezoelectric motors with standardized characteristics, that are easy to manufacture, and benefit from economies of scale.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Versatile

Linear or rotary, we are expert at finding smart ways to integrate our motor into your system specifications to drive your product to the next level.
